General
In the unlikely event that an incorrect price is shown on our website, Coastal Cameras Limited (8184868) reserves the right to abstain from fulfilling the order at that price. You will of course be notified, at which point you will be informed of the correct price and be given the choice to proceed with the order. Coastal Cameras make every effort to get the original details correct but take into consideration different situations. No contract exists between the customer and Coastal Cameras for the sale of any goods or services until we have received and accepted your order and we have received payment in full (in cleared funds). Once we do so, there is a binding legal contract between us. The goods are subject to availability. If the good are unavailable locally we may choose to ship directly from our suppliers who are based in Hong Kong. If on receipt of your order the goods you have ordered are not available in stock, we will inform you as soon as possible. Every effort will be made to deliver the goods as soon as possible after your order has been accepted. This would be within 30 days. Further delays or longer initial lead times will be communicated either at the time of placing the order or by a secondary communication. Our products are parallel imported, meaning your warranty coverage will be provided through Coastal Cameras Limited as opposed to the Manufacturer. This warranty does not apply to any defect in the goods arising from fair wear and tear, willful damage, accident, and negligence by you or any third party, use otherwise than as recommended by Coastal Cameras, failure to follow the Coastal Cameras’ instructions, or any alteration or repair carried out without Coastal Cameras’ approval.
Limitation of Liability
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the statutory rights of any consumer or exclude or restrict any liability for death or personal injury arising from the negligence or fraud of Coastal Cameras. By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions, you agree that Coastal Cameras shall not be liable either in contract, tort, negligence, statutory duty or otherwise, for any direct loss or damage (including loss or damage which is reasonably foreseeable or occurs naturally in the course of things) resulting from any acts, omissions, failures or delays occurring on or in relation to those parts of the internet not under Coastal Cameras‘s direct control including, without limitation, damage for loss of business, loss of sales, non-payment of sums due, loss of profits, business interruption, loss of reputation, loss of business information, or any other pecuniary loss (even where Coastal Cameras has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damage).
Missing Items
Customers are expected to report any missing items from their order promptly after delivery. This also must be verified by Coastal Cameras stock. Customers must inform us within 3 days if you have not received your delivery. Our customer service team will need to investigate any missing deliveries with the relevant courier, and while we will endeavor to complete this as quickly as possible, this may cause a delay to your order. Customers must advise us of any items missing from their order within 3 days of receipt, so that Coastal Cameras may investigate and cross-check against our internal stock and dispatch records.
Operation
We supply to New Zealand addresses only, and only to the billing address of the customer; however, with some credit/debit card issuers, it may be possible to contact the issuing bank to add a secondary address. All prices are displayed in $ New Zealand Dollars. Prices are fully inclusive of GST. Any additional delivery charges are clearly displayed before an order is submitted. All brand names are trademarks of their respective companies. Product images featured on the site are for guidance only and are not always an exact match of a product. Availability of a product cannot be guaranteed. We operate 7 days a week and orders received after 2.30pm will be processed on the next business day. Before placing an order, the customer will be requested to accept/decline our terms and conditions. Orders will only be processed if acceptance is indicated and therefore the customer is deemed to have accepted these terms and will abide by them. The placing of an order represents an offer to purchase the products indicated by the customer and is not binding on us until the order is accepted and dispatched by us. If a product shown on the website is unavailable, incorrectly priced or incorrectly described, we shall not be obliged to sell you the product. An acknowledgment of your order will be sent to you via email when you place your order online, but acceptance of your offer to buy the Goods will not take place until payment is taken. It is at this point that a binding legal contract is created, and any contract is subject to these Terms and Conditions. Customers have the chance to change and amend any part of their order until they press the ‘submit order’ button. We will send you an email confirming your order. Should you need to adjust any part of this order, please contact our sales support team by email to [email protected], or call.

Please allow seven days for cheques to clear before goods are sent. We do not recommend sending cash as a method of payment and cannot be held responsible for any loss during transit.
Cancellation Rights
Distance buying regulations provide a cooling off period (not a try before you buy period) and a right to cancel your order should you decide not to complete the transaction. The cooling off period begins the day after your goods are received and ends 14 working days later. The regulations require the customer to contact us in writing to notify us of the intent to cancel/return the goods. We cannot accept returns/cancellations if we have not been notified in writing before this period has lapsed. Email is an acceptable way to notify us and we will confirm that we have received such communication. If an order is canceled within this cooling-off period, we expect the goods to be returned to us before we process any refund. We do not refund carriage costs. We also expect goods to be returned in pristine condition with the original packaging and contents and must not be used in a way that constitutes acceptance by the customer. If you exercise your right of cancelation after the goods have been delivered to you, you will be responsible for returning the goods to Coastal Cameras at your own cost. The goods must be returned to the provided address and you must take reasonable care to ensure the goods are not damaged in the meantime or in transit.

This period may be extended at the sole discretion of Coastal Cameras, where the manufacturers’ replacement exceeds this deadline. No liability for any claim for missing items such as manuals, etc. shall be accepted unless Coastal Cameras are notified in writing by the purchaser promptly after delivery.
